Editorial Reviews Dufus’ last record, 1:3:1 (ruscd 8283) garnered some amazing attention. What the media... On Ball of Design, Dufus choose to eschew some of their more wacky leanings—no jocks carrying dildos or more girl cops. Nope, this time you, the listener, are asked to forget all you think you know, about music, about your life, to "set aside your idiot for a minute" and pay attention to a great rock record.

About the Artist
Writers have compared Dufus’ folk-punk cacophonic prog-ditties to Captain Beefheart, The Fugs, Frank Zappa, Ween, Mr. Bungle, Moldy Peaches, Mozart, The Band, The Strokes, John Zorn, Dead Kennedys, Need New Body, The B-52s, Gong and The Muppets. While these comparisons are too eclectic to give a real clue as to Dufus’ sound, they are a testament to Dufus’ extraordinary musical vision.
Album Description
Ball of Design is a record full of anger and hope. Much darker, more epic, and undoubtedly more political than their last album, 1:3:1, Ball of Design features a more focused Dufus—both figuratively and literally. Dufus has gone from fifteen members to a fit five: Strictly Beats on drums, Rick on guitar, Marko on bass, Lucas Crane phd on analog arts (probably the best tape deck-ist in the universe) and mastermind Seth Faergolzia on vocals and guitar. This is hippie death metal that is changing the world.
